  • Brilliant. Not a secret. SHHHH... shouldn't be a secret. Recently named by National Geographic as one of the world's top 10 geotourism destinations, Evergreen Brick Works needs to be on your list. If you have a list of places to visit that inspire, places that teach, places that motivate, places that energize, places that reveal, places that sustain, places that transform... you will want to consider this destination. Evergreen is poetry in motion, created by fire and water. The Great Fire of 1904 insured that the Brick Works was busy rebuilding the area. The floods from Hurricane Hazel in 1954, caused the creation of the Metropolitan & Toronto Region Conservation Authority which began acquiring ravine lands. Author Robert Fulford said "the ravines are to Toronto what canals are to Venice, hills are to San Francisco and the Thames is to London. They are the heart of the City's emotional geography, and understanding Toronto requires an understanding of the ravines." Hoa N. is a rockstar infamous poet, sometimes elite yelper, and always amazing friend who is a true Anthropologist of Place. She is a pro at mapping the "emotional geography" of a city and in her short 2 months in Toronto, has already made Evergreen a regular visit in her weekly schedule. She brought me here. It was free. We ate fresh local foods from the Farmer's Market. She bought some amazing comfrey for my injuries. She brought my attention to a water collection tank near the Market. We used the airblades in the Women's Restroom. We saw a party walk to their wedding. We listened to a race as hundreds of people gathered. Drank a double espresso. Went on a hike with her boys. We discussed prefab architecture and kit-of-parts metal building ideas for inexpensive and beautiful homes. Had I been paying attention, I would have noticed the pervious concrete parking lot, the green roof, the 15 20K-litre rainwater harvesting cisterns, the solar chimneys, the numerous energy saving devices, the many good ideas... Evergreen makes me want to pay attention... Build and destroy less. Smile and plant more. Write the wrongs.
